Tennessee GOP Attacks Michelle Obama, Obama Camp Hits Back
You should be ashamed that you see nothing to be ashamed about in this country.
How about millions going without healthcare?! How about hundreds of years of racism?!
How about the sexism that still exists?! How about CEO's getting paid 700 times what the average worker in the company makes?! How about Kent State?! Waco!? Mass shootings from students on school campases?! Wife beatings; child beatings and molestations; drop-out rates; unaffordable education?! On and on ad nausem! posted 05/16/2008 at 13:16:49

Advice for Michelle Obama:
In a commercial say:
"I was speaking of how I am proud that America has come out in millions to vote for a Black man for President. It is absolute evidence that the walls of racism have finally come down.
There is nothing to be proud of from this White House administration. (List negatives...pre-emptive war; economy that favors the rich; full of lies; etc.
And there is nothing to be proud of with John McCain's neo-con ideas, either. (expand) He will create only a country we will be ashamed of. posted 05/16/2008 at 13:00:54

John McCain Trades Straight Talk for Unadulterated Fantasy
I know you don't like Hillary, Arianna, and love Obama, (I like them both) but, I think we're going to have to come at McCain with a double barrelled shotgun, by having both Obama and Hillary on the same ticket.
He's too hard to beat. He's a man's man, has a sence of humor, very likeable, and has had the respect of many Americans for many, many years. Plus, he's a white man.
Like it or not, we HAVE to have Hillary and Barack on the same ticket. posted 05/16/2008 at 13:37:22

McCain Sets Timetable For Getting Out Of Iraq
Look, Blindy,
Oil IS the lifeblood of this nation. You are lofty and naive. You must be an Obama supporter.

John McCain and al Qaeda
But if we do get the old McCain back, we'll lose the election.
Having him say neoconish things helps our team.
McCain is, however, starting to play the Bush/Rove game of disecting national demographics, and saying things like---we withdraw troops, but keep the military base in Iraq, and no casualties.
Now how can puppy Obama compete with that?
Obama MUST say we keep military base in Iraq, remove troops en masse, and no csualties.
Or else we lose. posted 05/15/2008 at 12:26:36

There are 189 delegates to be won in the remaining primaries (Kentucky-51; Oregon-52; Puerto Rico-55; Montana - 16; South Dakota - 15. Total 189.
There are 250 Super Delegates left.
Florida- 211; Michigan - 157. Total - 368.
Obama had 1,884, needed 142 to get to 2026.

Six Reasons Why Obama and Clinton Would Each Say "Yes" to VP
I think Hillary would look pretty good on the ticket if, and when, McCain stresses the importance of having a military Base in the Middle East. He's already said we can have a base there without casualties.
We used to have a military base in the Middle East--in Saudia Rabia, until we got kicked out after 9/11.
Too bad we didn't just pay some country to establish one ther---it would have been less costly in terms of money and lives.
We are just at the beginning of of oil problems. Perhap's Hillary's vote won't look so foolish when it comes time to vote in November.
And Perhaps Obama's naivety about pulling out our military base there will look silly. posted 05/14/2008 at 16:15:13

Excellent article as usual, Arianna.
Some of my best friends are Republican, and I've never been able to budge them an inch! They are in a trance of blind obedence to their party. Basically their silent mantra is "My Father was a Republican."
Yet when we have conversations about issues, we agree. But when we attach 'political party' to an issue---we almost get into a fight!
If the Republicans took up the far left issues as their own----they would all convert!!! I swear it's true!
"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet."

We are running out of oil.

We're going to be out of oil in a couple decades, according to Epcot Center and the above documentary.
We can survive with electric cars; but the real issue is getting airplanes up and across oceans.

Hillary Clinton On O'Reilly Factor: Wright's Statements Are Offensive And Outrageous (VIDEO)
What a hard job it is to run for president!
You have to campaign to so many diverse groups---from gun loving red necks to the extreme left liberals.
It would make a truth stretcher out of anyone!
Can't you Hillary haters understand that?
It's only she, that can change this nation for the better.

Press Descend On Obama Following Wright Controversy
So many of the responses seem full of hate.
Obama supporters---full of hate!?
Full of hate towards Hillary!?
She's most likely not going to win NC, where the population is 38% Black, and the remaining white vote red.
If she manages to pull it off in Indiana, she may well be the nomonee.
I would like to see people ease their hate and look for the good in Hillary.
Hate should be reserved for the Devil and Bush.
Hillary will be the angel that will save this country. posted 04/30/2008 at 14:09:53

However, at a time when the planet is past Hubert's curve in oil, in a war or two, the national debt and consumer debt at record highs...on and on ad nuesum.....this is not the time to vote in a freshman that comes with another whole set of big issues.
Sorry to be so blunt.

America May Owe Reverend Wright a Debt of Gratitude
I agree with you, gpfgarden, that Obama should admit what he agrees with about Wright.
But if he does that---I think he can still win. As a matter of fact he almost has to do that to win.
He has to prove he's an Abe Lincoln----strong man. Not a weak man always running away. posted 04/29/2008 at 13:34:22

I don't agree with '...America is afflicted with amnesia...' about the hardships of black people in our history.
Rev Wright said at the press conf. yesterday, that if God wants Obama to win the election--he will win the election---that it has nothing to do with him (Wright).
Well, if that's true---was it God's will that we had Black slaves in this country?
I feel deeply for Blacks and I want them all to have a good life, and always have wanted that. That is what the strong voter turn out for Obama has been saying---that white people want racial equality. posted 04/29/2008 at 13:28:32

Bush Three Is Wrong -- Is Clinton Three Any Better?
Hi Alec! Thanks for being so politically active. And smart!
Sorry, I'm still for Hillary. If you can get past the the lying sniper fire stories, you can see she's still the one most ready and able to take on all the incredible challenges left by the Bush administration.
If it were any other time---with no war, a time of peace and prosperity---I'd say, fine, Obama.
But these times are too serious for having the Black issue in full bloom while we have all these other problems. Hillary will help Blacks too. Barak is in no way proven as someone who can even know how to turn our economy around.
And we have an even more serious issue at hand, and nobody's talking about it. We are going to be out of oil very, very soon. I watched "A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash" on the Sundance channel last night. We've got a catastrophy right around the corner. That's why we need the astute and experienced, Hillary. Not the puppy, tho warm, sweet and kind.
So, since oil is the lifeblood of the nation, we did need a military base in the Middle East. Too bad the greedy, sick, morons in the White House decided on a war instead of just paying some Middle East country for us to build one there. posted 04/22/2008 at 13:24:10

The Very Serious Debate, Starring The Very Serious George & Charlie
Ya, but wasn't Hillary GREAT!!!
She really knows her stuff.
She will be our next President!
YES!!! The first woman President!!! And what a terrific role model she is for us women.
Thank you Hillary, for your endurance.
And thank you, George and Charlie, for being men enough to try to even the score, and not be sexist against Hillary. posted 04/18/2008 at 14:06:24

Here We Go Again
Hillary and Bill are corrupt to the core!!???
Come on---they are nice people with the American people truely at heart.
I, too, predicted all the Bush administration would do.
And I also predicted the World Trade Center buildings would come tumbling down after they got hit.
But I can also predict that Hillary would do the best job in the White House.
And I can also predict, that if Obama wins, we will be hearing about race ad nauseum for the next four years.
Remember how the cameras captured the Black responce to the OJ verdict across America's cafeterias? We are going to see more of that. A lot more of that if Obama wins. posted 04/14/2008 at 15:58:48

Who Can Beat McCain?
Sorry for calling you sexist, last time, Alex. I take it back.
I think the only answer is: Hillary and Obama on one ticket!!!
If Obama is on top, then our country will again be witnessing what we saw in cafeterias all across the country after the OJ verdict was read.
Or what we in Chicago witnessed after we elected our first Black mayor: swarms of southside Blacks drove up to the famous 'Rush Street' area bringing their boom boxes with, playing at full volume. They didn't reach out a hand to us in friendship; they snubbed us as if they were taking over. Practically all the bars ands restuarants closed and it took years to rebuild after Mayor Harold Washington died.
Hillary has to be on top. She won't do the Vice Pres spot, I believe; afterall she already was Vice President for 8 years.
Vice President would be perfect for Obama.
With all the problems the new president will have to clean up after the present administration, this is no time to bring in the "Black Issue" on top of it all. posted 04/10/2008 at 18:31:00

Howard Dean Gets Heated With Clinton Donors At Private Meeting
Dean got us into this mess in the first place. I guess he was a hot-head afterall.
The race will continue through the convention. And it will be Dean, ultimately who will "appoint" the nominee. Oh, great. posted 04/04/2008 at 16:28:52

A Vote for Hillary Is a Vote for the Death of the Dollar
Excellent post, Alex??!!
Obama is in no way ready to handle the economic crisis!!
Hillary was Vice President for 8 years----a time of prosperity for all.

Abstinence is the New Feminism (And Other Things I Learned at Harvard)
How about teaching women self respect.
That is the only way to change this male supremist thing they've been getting away with for forever.
I am 53 years old. If I could do it over again, with my new ability to see that a lot of men had no interest in me as a person (men that would prefer I not have a voice---want me to just sit there and look pretty and adoringly at them), I would just come outright and say it. Yes, I would say, "You have no interest in me as a person, and you don't give a damn about my personality. So until you prove to me you like me as a person---there will be no sex."
And girls---what is with this high sqeeky voice many of you are doing. That says you are lower on the totem pole. Men are very concious of their voices---trying to keep them as low as possible at all times.
Also, knock it off with the playing dumb. It only creates relationships of dysfunction from the dishonesty.
We need Hillary as President. Can't you women see that!!! posted 04/01/2008 at 13:13:49

Not Until the Fat Lady Sings
During these times---our economy in ruin; a war in the land of oil----we need someone with the experience and moxy of Hillary Clinton.
Obama---if he were an economist, or some brilliant, and successful business person, then he should be considered. But he is not. He is a puppy in comparison to Hillary.
Wake up. How in God's name could Obama cure the woes our country faces today?
Vice President----not President Obama. posted 04/04/2008 at 15:55:39

Could the Republicans Pick the Democratic Nominee? -- The Untold Story of How the GOP Rigged Florida and Michigan
Thank goodness for Chuck Schumer--D-NY.
He says "Of course we're going to count FL and MI."
He is a powerful person.
His head is screwed on straight.
He should have been the nominee for President.
He will come to the rescue at the convention.
Dean may trump Schumer at the convention, however (since he is the actual power in this decision) and may "appoint" Obama (since that is who he is endorsing). posted 03/31/2008 at 15:08:12

Hooked on Hillary
I'm still for Hillary, even tho I'm going around asking myself, "How could Hillary be so stupid as to tell such a story?"
I'm disappointed, but the fact stil remains: In these highly troubled times, she's the best one to handle the job as President.
Obama would be great as President if we didn't have an economy going down the toilet.
Obama hasn't the experience to handle the right wing attacks, while Hillary can, as she is back with a vengence.
I know everyone wants equality of the races, but gender bias is so ingrained in our society, that most people seem unaware of it.
Having the additional "Black" issue on the plate of the Presidency, may overshadow the fact that this country may be going into financial ruin.
'You're a racist!' 'No, you're a racist!' It's like McCarthyism: 'You're a communist!' That's all we're going to be hearing for the next four years if Obama is elected. Meanwhile, America becomes the next 'Japan-like' economy. posted 03/31/2008 at 14:03:09

Reuters: "Somebody Forgot To Tell Hillary Clinton The Democratic Presidential Race Is Over And Barack Obama Won"
Richardson! He unwisely remarked that Super Delegates should follow what the voters in their region wanted. That was Clinton for him. Then he comes out and endorses Barack!! Geesh! I'm glad he didn't win the nomination!
Hillary won all the major states. They are basically neck and neck. Over 5 times in the past decade, did a candidate go into the convention with less delegates, and come out the winner. Wilson, FDR, Eisenhower...
Howard Dean ultimately will decide this. Unfortunately he was chairman when the DNC decided to have MI and FL not be in the race. Maybe he's a hothead, afterall. If he goes with Barack, we'll have a puppy in there during a most critical time. If we were at peace, and the economy was clicking along just fine, then He would be OK. But it's not. We need Hillary. Barack--Vice President. posted 03/27/2008 at 14:59:17

Big Mac's Blazing Saddle Diplomacy
Very good comments from everybody!
We only have about 30 more years of oil. What, McCain doesn't know that!? I guess not---why else would we stay there 100 years? Once the oil is gone---we're gone.
Too bad there aren't government insentives for discovering alternative energy---I mean something good enough to get an airplane across the ocean. Time is running out. Imagine what our lives would be like if we could no longer fly. Still no cure for the common cold.
Without oil, we come to a screaching halt.
We should have just paid a Middle Eastern country to have a military base there since we got kicked out of Saudi Arabia---it would have been cheaper than a war. Well, that's if you really care about the economy of the whole nation, let alone the devastation the widows of war will never get over.
But obviously, this administration, nor McCain, is concerned about either of those two things---there has been no advantages for us being there. No cheaper oil---but more expensive. No peace in that region---rather turmoil. What are we fighting for? If we win---what does that mean? Nothing. Absolutely nothing---just a richer Halliburton, Blackwater, and a lot of macho fun for that spoiled, ignoramous, our President, George Bush.
If McCain wins it will spell disaster for America in the way of financial ruin. posted 03/27/2008 at 13:37:11
